 September 23, 2025

Can Your Genes Cause a Slow Metabolism?

Think you're stuck with a "slow metabolism" forever? Think again.

If you've ever wondered why some people seem to eat whatever they want while you gain weight just looking at food, Dr. J has answers that might surprise you. It's not just about willpower or "good genes" - there's actual science behind why your metabolism works the way it does.

In this week's Q&A, Dr. J takes you inside the biochemical pathways that turn your food into energy, showing you exactly where genetic variants can slow things down - and more importantly, what you can do about it. She also reveals the shocking environmental factors that damage your mitochondria over time (hint: some "healthy" medications might be sabotaging your energy production).

But here's the game-changer: those sugar cravings you beat yourself up about? They're not a moral failing. They're your starving cells crying out for help. When you understand what's really happening at the cellular level, everything changes.

Your metabolism isn't set in stone. Ready to learn how to rev it up naturally?

Finally understand why you feel the way you do - and get your energy back.
